At its top is what was transcribed, and below is a list of
alternate transcriptions, each preceded by a number.
Here is what you can do:
If what Dragon should have transcribed is listed:
say choose n (the number of the correct line). You
can also pick the correct choice by double-clicking
it or using down arrow and Enter key.
If no choice is quite correct but one is close, you
can save time by modifying it instead of entering it
yourself: click it, or say modify n or edit n. In our
illustration, you could say “edit 1” to bring up
“Madison”, then “backspace 4” then “Y S S E N”.
If what Dragon should have transcribed is NOT
listed:
enter it, then say click OK or press Enter. In our
example, you could say “cap M A D Y S S E N” then
click OK”.
The Spelling Window then closes and, in your text, Dragon replaces the misrecognized segment with what you
indicated was the correct transcription.
Note: In addition to adjusting your document, Dragon also learned a bit of information to refine your profile, and if
you entered in the Spelling Window a word that was not in its active vocabulary, Dragon has now added that word
to its active vocabulary (you could now see that word in the Vocabulary Editor).
Remember that Dragon allows the use of voice and does not prohibit manual action; at different times one may be
quicker or easier than the other. In the edit line of the Spelling Window, it can be faster to make modifications with
mouse or keyboard, although you can perform correction entirely by voice.
You cannot dictate words in the Spelling Window. However, you can dictate:
Individual characters: letters, digits, space, symbols (see your documentation for details)
Commands like backspace 5, move right 4 characters, delete next word, select line
Note: In the Spelling Window, Backspace and Delete commands should be used instead of scratch that,
especially if Press Key commands are used.
As you enter characters in the Spelling window, Dragon presents new choices in the list, so you may not
have to enter all characters! Here are tips for spelling out:
To spell a capital letter, just say cap followed by the letter.
You can use alternate pronunciations to spell letters: “alpha”, “letter alpha”, “letter a”, “bravo”,
“charlie”, “delta”, “echo”, “foxtrot”, etc. (see the Help for the full list)
To insert a space, say space” or "spacebar".
If one of the choices listed is close, you can save time by modifying it: say modify and its number,
which brings it to the top of the Spelling window.
